Swimming with Full Clothes on
Many apartments/condominiums have a private pool. Malaysia is among the few countries in the world where you can find people swimming with clothes on. Although there is a dress code to adhere to, people are simply not civilized enough to follow it.
Recently, dress codes in private pools at apartments/condominiums have been relaxed to allow for additional modesty. Many pool operators allow people to swim fully clothed if they can prove that they have a second set of clothes that are only for use in the pool, and if they are willing to go through the showers in this second set of clothes prior to entering the pool. I would understand and fully agree if this applies to women, but that is a man in the pool.
In more developed countries, private pools simply do not allow clothed swimming for hygienic reasons. I would never go into a pool if I see someone there fully clothed. Maybe that’s the reason why I have not swim in a pool for a long time.

You really want to see lardtubs floating free without eye protection? I heard in some parts of the world it’s illegal for a fatty to be seen wearing speedos.

Some fat guys develop gynecomastia which can be humiliating, many of these individuals go the extra mile to swim clothed, which also saves us having to see them, good for them. The issue of oils/other contaminants on clothing can be an issue but if they do have that second set just for swimming good for them, it can actually be more beneficial as many people dont use lotions and oils on those covered parts of the body which can even result in less particles accumulating in the pool and filters.
